governor, and seven candidates for u.s. house district 2 on the republican side. with many of our voting machines, with our touchscreen voting machines, there were simply too many candidates to appear on one page. so the machines, you had to go to a second page to view all candidates. we alerted the voting public of that prior to the -- prior to election day, and also noted that each type of machine, no matter what type of brapd, tells the voters they have not looked at all the candidates. now, the voter can ignore that message and move on, but every machine alerted people of that. so we are that and we did everything we could to alert people of that prior to election day. >> okay, briuryan caskey, you h a lot on your hands to deal with with this race and the two men want to know who won. bryan caskey, thank you to much. we'll let you get back to it. thank you for the update. this is cnn breaking news. >> all right. we continue on. i'm brooke baldwin. thank you for being with me. we begin with the breaking news

in the trial of former trump campaign chairman, paul manafort. after this mystery recess today that lasted for more than five hours. court is now back in session. on the stand, one of the most intriguing witnesses in this case here, a former banker, an employee of a bank whose ceo was recommended by manafort for a position inside the frump administratiad trump add statiadministration. let's go to joe johns for a bit more. tell me about this individual on the stand. >> reporter: brooke, witnesses, dennis rakoe, he is from federal savings bank. he's been given immunity from prosecuti prosecution. he is testifying about the ceo of his bank. he testified that paul manafort came to the bank asking for a couple loans. the bank was working on them. a meeting was arranged between

manafort and others and the very next day, at least one of those loans was approved. one of those loans was for $5.7 million. what's interesting about this is this is the time when mr. manafort was the campaign chairman or the campaign manager of the trump campaign, and it was pretty clear that this man wanted, in other words, the ceo, wanted to do something with the trump organization. and he expressed that. it wasn't clear whether he was talking about the trump organization in new york, the business, at least from the testimony i heard while i was there, or whether he was talking about the trump campaign. nonetheless, it's also clear that this individual, steven, did get recommended for a job inside the administration, we know from other sources.

that was down the road some time after manafort had left the campaign. so i think the bottom line on that part of testimony, quite frankly, is that mr. manafort was working for the campaign, and also getting a loan and somebody picked up that he needed to ask mr. manafort was a working for trump. >> got it. joe, just quickly, any explanation for this multi-hour recess today? >> reporter: no explanation at all. it's been very mysterious. they came in with the jury right around 9:30, 9:45 this morning eastern time. no testimony. long bench conferences between the judge and the attorneys. white noise turned up in the courtroom so people could not even get the gist of the conversation. after some time, about 11:15 or so eastern, the judge decided to let the jury go until the

afternoon session. they came back at around 1:30 or so eastern time, and there was just more delay until 15 or 20 minutes after 2:00 at which time the judge came in and he told the prosecutor to call the next witness. however, he had forgotten to bring the jury in and there was laughter in the courtroom. the judge did bring the jury in and they proceeded on the witness i just stopped telling you about, dennis rakoe. no explanation. >> joe, thank you very much in virginia for us. let's talk to two great minds sitting next to me. cnn legal and national security analyst and former fbi special agent, asha rangappa and cnn analyst paul callan. what was going on in the courthouse? the white noise machine. when i go into my therapist's office, there's white noise machines.

like you don't want anyone to hear your conversations. so why -- >> let me spin the white noise machine first. >> okay. >> in any kind of a trial there are bench conferences, there's an objection, the judge says come up to the bench. he's going to rule on it out of the hearing of the jury. to make sure the jury doesn't hear it, they have a white noise machine to drown out the sound. >> sure. >> when you hear somebody say there's a lot of white noise going on, that means they're huddling at the bench an awful lot because there are a lot of problems being discussed. now, what problems are they probably discussing? >> to work through several hours with a judge who likes to keep the train on the tracks in this courtroom. >> well, i think keeping the train on the tracks is the whole with judge ellis because he's constantly cutting off the prosecutors. not letting them call witnesses that incidentally they told him previously they had a right to call. >> they'd been okay. >> there was an irs expert who was previously told by the judge that he could sit in the court and watch some of the testimony. this was in a pretrial

application. and apparently, he forgot about it. so then he started bawling out the prosecutors in front of the jury and that causes them to lose their credibility. then a second incident occurred when the judge told the jury to disregard testimony about paul ma manafort applying for a loan and said words to the effect of to the prosecutors, why don't you focus about the facts of the case, it's about the loans he did get, not the loans he applied for. the prosecutors later came back and said, judge, this is a conspiracy case, and that application for the loan he didn't get is part of the case. we want a curative instruction. now, when a judge gives a curative instruction, he's saying to the jury, disregard what i told you before, and consider the evidence that the prosecution offered. but the defense in that case is now going to say, judge, you're endorsing the veracity of their testimony, you don't have the right to do that. so it's a big argument. >> why would they take several

hours to do this today? >> because that instruction is such a complicated instruction. >> okay. >> it could cause a mistrial or reversal on appeal. it's essentially saying, don't listen to me, i'm the judge, even though i told you that evidence was irrelevant. i don't know. it's a complicated instruction. that's all i can say. >> okay. okay. i'm looking at the lawyer, did you have anything to jump in on? >> just to regard to some of these sidebars, one other noteworthy thing, in an earlier sidebar this week, which was apparently very lengthy, the government's also filed a motion to have a transcript of that sidebar, you know, the court clerk is still typing up what the lawyer and judge are saying. >> yeah. >> to have that sealed because what was revealed in that sidebar is part of an ongoing sensitive investigation. >> got it. >> that has not yet been made public and was related to gates' testimony. so, interesting to see what that could be about.

>> okay. stay with me. i have more for you. including the special counsel's russia investigation closing in on this guy, roger stone and his inner circle. why one of his close associates just simply failed to show up for a grand jury subpoena today. but first, we'll talk race in america. the president reigniting his attacks on nfl players, a fox news host trying to walk back racist comments about immigration. and it's all coming one year after those deadly protests in charlottesville. van jones joins me next.

on the streets of charlottesville. one year since one of them ran over a young woman bravely speaking out against them and killed her. one year since the president of the united states said that there were fine people on both sides. he said that, by the way, not just once, but twice. he said it again, even after all the backlash. but one year later, we are discussing race and once again the most heated of ways. the president today renewing his attacks on nfl players after several of them last night took a knee, raised a fist, during the league's first preseason games. in part, the president says that these players are unable to define their outrage. and says nfl games, which are played on american soil, by the way, are not the places to be protesting. on top of this, you have this fox news host blatantly citing illegal and legal immigration as a reason the america she loves doesn't exist anymore because of, quote, democratgraphic chan. she just unapologetically and so

blatantly cites race for not liking the america that she sees and last night when spike lee whose new movie profiles a real-life confrontation with the kkk from the 7'70s, when he was asked about charlottesville, this is what spike lee had to say about racists in america and who is speaking to them. >> this guy's got in the white house, it's not even a dog whistle. it's a blowhorn. and then also, anderson, we've seen a rise of the right. it's not just americans. it's worldwide. >> kanye west, he sees it differently. speaking out in support of president trump. >> everyone around me tried to pick my candidate for me. and then told me every time i said i liked trump that couldn't say it out loud or my career would be over. i'd get kicked out of the black

community because blacks, we're supposed to have a monolithic thought, we can only be democrats. >> you so famously and so powerfully said george bush doesn't care about black people. makes me wonder what makes you think that donald trump does or any people at all. why don't we take a break. we'll come back and kanye west -- >> yeah. >> not often you see him speechless. i'm excited to talk to this guy, van jones, our cnn political commentator and host of the "van jones show." obviously an honor to have you on. i want to run through all of the news happenings and all the things tied together because of this discussion on race. but it's one year this weekend that charlottesville happened. you have spent so much time talking to people on different sides of the aisle. bringing them together. >> yeah. >> what do you think of where we are in this country right now? >> i think we're still spiraling away from each other. i think that part of the tragedy is, you know, good people --

there are good people on both sides of the political divide in america. there are good republicans. there are good democrats. there are not good people on the si side of the nazis, not geed peop good people on the side of swastikas and using isis tactics to murder someone with a car in broad daylight in the streets of america. there's got flogood people on b sides of that. we're spiraling away from each other. i'm proud, though, aer y eyear charlottesville a lot of groups because of ordinary people saying we're sick of this, they can't use credit cards online anymore, social media is starting to boot them off. the antibodies are starting to kick in to say extreme hatred has no place yet it then sflene back through the front door with laura ingrahams. we've been pushing it out the back door on social media and laura ingraham on cable television comes out -- >> you can't walk that back. >> can't walk it back. >> you can't walk that back. >> i just want to be very clear about something.

usually, it is a dog whistle, to spike lee's point of view, usually it is, well, it's about border security, it's about t following the law. it's about people being in line, not jumping the line, it's not about race. they've been telling the liberals, people like ing it be race. we're post-racial in america. shut up about it. i don't care if they're not terrorists, if they're not in gangs, if they're brown, i don't like them. that's race. >> you mentioned ingraham. seems like with so many people, views on race, they're not hiding it anymore. they're not hiding it anymore. let's go back to fox news host laura ingraham. first i want to play for you, hear what she said that caused such this uproar then hear her clarification? >> some parts of the country, it does seem like the america that we know and love doesn't exist anymore. massive demographic changes have been foisted upon the american people, and they're changes that

none of us ever voted for and most of us don't like. from virginia to california, we see stark examples on how radically in some ways the country has changed. now, much of this is related to both illegal and in some cases legal immigration that, of course, progressives love. a message to those who are distorting my views including all white nationalists and especially one racist freak whose name i will not even mention. you do not have my support, you don't represent my views, and you are antithetical to the beliefs i hold dear. the purpose of last night's angle was to point out that the rule of law, meaning secure borders, is something that used to bind our country together. and despite what some may be contending, i made explicitly clear that my commentary had nothing to do with race or ethnicity. >> sorry, laura, you can't walk

that back. and the language she used originally, the same kind of language we hear from avowed white supremacists. i want to play one more thing. watch this conversation that our correspondent, sara sidner, had, with a nero nazi. >> reporter: in the calm of this northern pennsylvania town, a sign that hate lives here. are you a neo nazi? >> do i embrace it? i don't try to push it away. >> reporter: you're wearing a swastika on your shirt. >> exactly. >> reporter: and you've got swastika flags. why the flags, why the shirt, why the hateful symbols in this town? >> i don't think they're hateful. i think it's an ideology that's been completely misinterpreted since the riot. >> reporter: i got to stop, misinterpreted? misinterpreted? 6 million jews were killed. >> no, you'll never sell me on that. >> reporter: i'm not trying to sell you. it is reality. it's history. cannot be denied. daniel burnside is a lightning

rod of discord of ulysses, pennsylvania, population 690. with the help of the internet, his message has spread far and wide giving his town attention it does not want. >> rural america spoke up when they elected trump. rural america. >> reporter: and by rural america, he means white america. >> we're staring down the barrel of a gun here in white america. there's still 193 million white americans, yes, the vast majority of them are in their 60s and 70s, will be in the ground in the next 20 years. and therefore, we have the possibility of becoming a minority in our own country. a possibility. >> reporter: it sounds to me -- >> of becoming a minority in our own country. >> reporter: -- that you're afraid of being me. >> it's my country. >> reporter: this is also my country. >> you didn't win the culture war. >> reporter: he invited us on his property to talk. when he doesn't like our conversation, he explodes. >> get the [ bleep ] out of here. now. >> reporter: we do. just down the street we're met by a dozen residents who say burnside does not speak for this town. >> there are families in this county that blame politics for people like him sort of being

able to come out and be very loud. is that fair? >> our president we've got right now hasn't helped the situation a whole lot. he's got a lot of the same beliefs. you know, at least he won't speak against them. okay, this guy feeds off that stuff. >> reporter: among the crowd, many with grandfathers or fathers who fought the nazis in world war ii. >> we're good people and he's stepping on us. he's stepping on all of us. you know, we are all one tribe. you know, and who does he think he is? >> reporter: teacher debby hamilton just returned from touring concentration camps in poland. >> one of the things we spent a lot of time talking about was passive resistance versus active resistance. >> reporter: so far they've chosen passive resistance with burnside. on the other side of potter county, joe and shashina are convinced pass resistance is the wrong choice. >> i'm not saying you should go to their houses with pitchforks and guns, you know, i'm saying

hold a peaceful protest against them. >> ku klux klan neighborhood watch. >> reporter: after seeing kkk flyers in their neighborhood and burnside's declarations in their county, he did protest. . >> he would look at me and givemy the finger and even make little gestures like they were going to shoot me. >> reporter: joe says the racial hatred intensified when his jamaican bride arrived. >> in walmart, i get a lot of that. this, [ bleep ]. >> reporter: in their minds, if more people stood up against hate, the racists would be forced to leave and let love stand. sara sidner, cnn, ulysses, pennsylvania. >> well -- >> is it worse now? >> listen, i think that stuff that's been under the surface is now coming up to the surface. >> yeah. >> and that can be good or bad. if you have leadership in the white house, when it comes up, it comes up and you try to heal it, that could be a good thing,

a cathartic thing. the problem is you got leadership in the white house when it comes up, they make it worse and spread the poison and try to use it politically. so we're in a tough situation. i want to say, though, to my conservative friends, you got to pick a lane here. you've been telling me, you know, we're post-racial. quit playing the race card. you keep talking about race. that's the problem. we don't care about that. we want secure borders. we don't like terrorism. that's all it is. now you've got the number-one news organization for conservatives saying, hey, you know what, actually, we're not talks about terrorism. we're saying the fact -- >> how about brown people? >> -- you got too many brown people is bad. i don't care if they're schoolteachers, i don't care if they're nuclear physicists. too many brown people is bad. >> which is the same thing that that guy was saying to sara sidner. >> a nazi standing outside of his trailer and laura ingraham have the same message now. now, conservatives should be rising up. conservatives -- you're screwing up our messaging. we need to hold them -- we're post-racial. now you've got people who are

explicitly saying that no matter who you are, doesn't matter if you're a doctor, lawyer, if you are brown, and there's too many of you, i have a problem with that. there's something -- that is called racism. there -- that is the definition of racism. and it's coming from fox news hosts. in broad daylight in america. you wonder why we have people getting killed and run over and run out of towns in the rest of the country. we're better than this. we should be better than this. >> i started this conversation by saying we've spent a lot of time talking to folks on both sides, right, trying to find that common ground. that? wh that is what you're beautiful at doing. your show this weekend, you go to stone mountain. >> yes. >> you go to stone mountain for your "van in a van." home to the largest confederate monuments and birthplace of the modern day kkk. so tell me about that. >> well, it was a powerful experience, you know, i do this thing called "van in a van," the

"van jones show," please watch it tomorrow and we take republicans, democrats, lock the doors, child proof locks. i drive them around and make them talk. and this time i didn't tell them where we were going. and i drove to stone mountain. and the white woman starts crying because she's happy her father used to take her there as a kid for picnics, her father just passed away. the black woman starts crying -- >> we have a clip. >> oh, i'm sorry. never mind. you can see. >> stone mountain park. super nervous about coming here. >> why? >> the etching in stone is a monument to domestic terrorism. >> why do you say that? >> it's a celebration of confederacy. it's a reminder to black people that we should have never been freed. i'm actually shaking right now. >> that makes me so sad because i don't -- i don't identify with it that way, but coming here, i think of all the times with my father. my family. and so this seems like a happy

place. to hear that it's hurtful to you -- >> i can appreciate that. if i didn't have my seat belt on, i would hug you. >> it makes me sad that that is the impact it has on you, but this is a place where i have really happy memories. i could never sit in your shoes but i don't view the carving that way. >> how do you view it? i mean -- >> i mean, kkk rallies were here for a reason. it feels like a threat. it feels like a consistent and looming hard granite solid threat. >> powerful exchange. >> you know, you got two middle-class professional women living there in atlanta where you're from, they literally look at the same piece of granite and one cries tears of joy for her father. one literally cries and later on cries even more, terrified. we have to talk about that.

doesn't mean one's right or one's wrong. if we don't even know each other enough to understand why you can have completely different reactions, we'reoather ereere e demagogues pull us apart. when we talk about eep oaach ot don't talk to each other, that's when the nazis can win. >> do not miss this man's show tomorrow night 7:00 eastern. we'll watch that exchange. you also have leslie jones from "saturday night live." >> yes, keeping up with the joneses. >> i love it. thank you very much. i'm so happy for you. coming up next here, roger stone responding after three of his close associates are called to testify in front of a grand jury. we'll dig into why the special counsel seems more and more interested in trump's former political adviser. we'll be right back.

the legal battles hoping to appeal the grand jury order once again. owl of this shhappening as muelr subpoenaed the man who he said was the wikileaks back channel and the manhattan madam is taking the stand. is so, they're back, asha ramgappa. and paul callan, our cnn legal analyst. so i should also point out that roger stone is saying he has nothing to worry about, these people tell the truth to the grand jury. but beginning with you, asha, the walls are closing in on him. >> the walls are closing in and the stakes are higher. if we look at this recent indictment that mueller filed against those 12 gru officers, there's a part of that indictment which identifies an individual with whom guccifer 2.0, this is the russian intelligence hacker, was in touch with an individual who had regular contact with senior members of the campaign.

boasted in 20 16 that he had communications with wikileaks which is also implicated in that indictment. so when mueller talks to these associates, and as he's closing in, if it turns out that roger stone was, in fact, onboard with the object of the conspiracy that those gru officers were trying to achieve and did anything to help them, he, too, can be implicated there. and perhaps his associates if they were a part of that as well. zb >> i mean, on the implication note, paul, what does it say when all of your aides or people in your inner circle are being subpoenaed, like, if you're roger stone, are you feeling a little nervous? >> well, anybody who's issubpo a subpoenaed to appear before a federal grand jury should be very nervous. >> so far, roger stone, nobody's called him. i'm saying should he be nervous? >> he should be nervous because they're coming after him. i'm telling you,'s going to wind

up in front of the grand jury. i mean, he's such a bizarre guy. roger stone. you know, he has a tattoo of richard nixon on his back. it's a huge tattoo on his back. and he's been doing dirty tricks for republican candidates for ages. and he brags about it. he's never been secretive about it. so the fact that he would wind up as a major player in this investigation doesn't surprise me in the least. and the fact that maybe he was used as an intermediary is something they're certainly looking at. now, stone is saying that he got maybe some of his information from this person who's been subpoenaed who was a comedian and radio talk show host. so it's getting more and more interesting with more and more bizarre characters. >> let me play a little bit of, he was on temperature, roger stone, on with anderson earlier this week. here's a clip. >> i have not been.

>> i've not been contacted. i made it abundantly clear, there are no circumstances under which i would testify against the president. i would not rule out cooperating if they think i could be helpful in some area. but beyond that, i have not spoken to them. >> so, i guess he likes tattoos and hats. but seriously, the pressure is on. do you think that he's sitting -- do you think he may change his mind to either of you? or is he just, like, hoping and praying for a pardon? >> well -- go ahead, asha. >> if it comes to that. >> well, leaving the pardon aside. i don't think he has any control over what mueller is going to do. mueller is going to keep going. if any has evidence that's going to lead him to stone, then stone is going to find himself in a precarious position. and, you know, this whole thing i'm not going to testify -- i mean, if he has information, and if he, himself, has been involved in crimes, he's going to face some tough choices just like rick gates and papadopoulos

and flynn and the other parade of campaign associates that we've seen so far. >> but, you know, brooke, you have to listen carefully to roger stone's words. he said i'm not going to testify against the president. he didn't say i'm not going to testify. so he may mean i'll appear before the grand jury, but whatever question they ask me, i'm not going to say anything bad about the president. that's how he probably will handle it later because, frankly, if he refuses a grand jury subpoena, and doesn't assert the 5th amendment, which, by the way, he could, if he had criminal exposure, then he'll be held in contempt of court if he doesn't testify. so, and he'll go to jail for the remainder of the grand jury. so, and he'll see what kind of costumes and hats they wear there. yes. >> not pretty. >> lot of people have tattoos there. >> i hear that. i don't know that for sure. paul and asha, thank you so much for all things roger stone. coming up next here, this stunning turn of events in a violent and hateful attack on a 71-year-old sick plan. the police chief's son arrested

in the case and now that police chief has written an emotional letter of apology. we'll read part of it. his own words, next. - i love my grandma. - anncr: as you grow older, your brain naturally begins to change which may cause trouble with recall. - learning from him is great... when i can keep up! - anncr: thankfully, prevagen helps your brain and improves memory. - dad's got all the answers. - anncr: prevagen is now the number-one-selling brain health supplement in drug stores nationwide. - she outsmarts me every single time.

embarrassed and disgusted, that is how a northern california police chief describes his reaction after learning one of the taeenagers caught on security video brutally beating an elderly sikh man was his own 18-year-old son.

darryl mcallister poured out his feelings about his son's involvement in this attack. i want to read to you what the father wrote. "words can barely describe how embarrassed, dejected and hurt my wife, daughters and i feel right now. violence and hatred is not what we have taught our children. in tolerance for others is not even in our vocabulary. let alone our values. crime has never been an element of our household, our values nor the character to which we hold ourselves. despite having the desire any parent would have in wanting to protect their child, my oath is and always will be to the law and my vow of integrity guides me through this horrendous difficulty." he goes on to say, "my son began to lose his way a couple of years ago. while he was a juvenile, running away and getting involved in a bad crowd, he pretty much divorced his friends and family, associating with people none of us knew. he got into trouble for some

hello. >> this is ron stallworth calling. >> who am i speaking with? >> david duke. grand wizard of the ku klux klan. that david duke? >> god. last time i checked. what can i do you for? >> well, since you asked, i hate blacks. i hate jews. mexicans and irish. italians and chinese. but my mouth to god's ears, i really hate those black rats. and anyone else really that doesn't have pure white aryan blood running through their veins. >> i'm happy to be talking to the true white america. >> god bless white america. >> that was a scene from director spike lee's new film,

"blackkklansman" out today purposely released one year after charlottesville's race riry ri riot. a true story of a black colorado springs police officer who successfully infiltrated the kkk. that officer would go on to strike up a relationship -- so joining me the man that portrays duke in the film, a pleasure. and congratulations on this film. >> thank you. thanks for having me. >> you have been acting for quite a while. a lot of roles. the grand wizard of the kkk. did it take you a minute to say yes? and once you did say yes, tell me why. >> well, i asked to do it so it wasn't like someone asked me. i kind of hunted down the script. i wanted to read the new spike lee movie and then when i read it, i thought i think i have a take on david duke. and when i called up my agents saying i want to play david

duke, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone. >> really. >> they said you have to go read for spike. not like anything you've done before. i was happy to read for him. >> and so, in researching the role, i read that you watched a lot of phil donahue. i mean, you -- read his book. >> no. it was -- this is like the best day of your life. spike lee calls you and says i want you to be my guy and then at the end of the day you go, this is going to be the worst month of my life. i had to read the autobiography "called my awakening." i don't recommend it. terrible. i watched a lot of filmed interviews from the '70s. listened to his radio show to get his voice down and most helpful things is episodes of

donahue and pinpoint when's so evil about him. there's many things and in terms of my performance, i -- the audience hated him. i mean, donahue was having him on as the grand wizard of the ku klux klan and good with the audience. i said that's what makes him so evil is that he kind of rebranded racism at this time and made it more palatable to more people. >> wow. wow. so all the while you're shooting this film, you know, you have a -- first child with your wife. congratulations to you on that but you're running lines, lines full of hate speech and your wife is like, honey -- >> let's be careful what your child's first word is going to be here. she was really understanding, my wife. not just rehearsing lines around her and made me go to the den and do, but it was more about how just absolute depressing it was to spend that much time in

someone's head who's so full of hate. >> and i was watching the interviews with the real ron stallworth sitting with spike and ron said he got a call from the real david duke, ahead of the film's release. >> like five nights ago. >> he says to ron, essentially, hey, i'm worried about how i may be portrayed in this film. did ron tell you about that? >> he did. i mean, i was like, sequel! it's like kind of a same thing that happened years ago. david has denied since his book came out in 2006, since ron's book came out in 2006 that it ever happened so this was kind of an admission on his part it did happen and i think also an admission he doesn't know how hollywood works because, you know, there's no changing it now. >> in the can coming out today. topher, the film is all about racism in the '70s and reading

from your research of david duke the lines used, america first, make america great again. right? decades ago. then the film ends with the present day and the gut-wrenching scene of charlottesville a year ago. i'm curious what you think this will stir up in audiences as they leave the theater. >> well, yeah. when i -- especially in the episodes of donahue using the words america first and make america great begagain a lot. watching that from 2017, i don't know how many people watching ep codes of donahue now but it really stood out to me and i realized why a film like this and all are so important. if you don't study your history, you know, they say you can be condemned to repeat it. i think what spike is doing is just so, so important. >> topher grace, thank you so much. still ahead, tens of thousands of people under
